Given numbers are 597,431,596,538

The least common multiple of numbers can be find using the prime factorization method or LCM formula.

The LCM of 597,431,596,538 is 41252487468.

Find LCM of 597,431,596,538 with Prime Factorization

Multiply the prime numbers at the bottom and the left side.

2 x 597 x 431 x 298 x 269 = 41252487468

Therefore, the lowest common multiple of 597,431,596,538 is 41252487468.

LCM formula is LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}

Firstly, we have to find the product of all the numbers.

597 x 431 x 596 x 538 = 82504974936

Then, let us find the GCF of these five numbers. To do so, we have to list down the factors for each number and choose the highest factor that is in all of the lists.

597 : 1, 3, 199, 597

431 : 1, 431

596 : 1, 2, 4, 149, 298, 596

538 : 1, 2, 269, 538

1 is the greatest number that appears in all the lists. Therefore, we can determine that the GCF of 597,431,596,538, is 1.

Now, the common factors can be found like this.

597:3x 199

431:431

596:2x 2x 149

538:2x 269

From this, we can see that the common factors because they appear for more than two numbers. So, just multiply them all together.

2 = 2

Therefore, the value for common factors is 2.

Now that we have all the elements of the formula, we can plug them in to calculate the LCM.

LCM(a1, a2, an) = (a1 x a2 x an)/{GCF(a1 x a2 x an) x common factors}

LCM = 82504974936/(1x2)

LCM = 82504974936/2

LCM = 41252487468

Thus, we can understand that the LCM of 597,431,596,538 is 41252487468.
